Jimenez whisked off waiver wires

4thebirds...... Say so long to Kelvin Jimenez, who has suddenly been transformed from a Redbird to a Bluebird, claimed by the Toronto Blue Jays off waivers.

We've seen Jimenez show some promise during the last season, but with some obvious work yet to be done. Still, the young man had an opportunity to show his stuff with the parent club as the pitching staff dissipated during the year. Jiminez has something, but when his talent comes to fruition is hard to tell. The Blue Jays were willing to try to figure out how to make Jimenez better, faster, it seems.
